So exciting to get to host a post season game do we think a lot of teams turned it down

General Admission - $5
Group Rate - $2 (for groups of 10 or more - GA tickets)

We'll be playing Lipscomb University (Nashville, TN) at 6 PM. Lipscomb finished 20-11 overall this season, 12-6 in the ASUN.

Common opponents:
Missouri - we lost 75-55, they lost 78-57
Tennessee State - we won 88-67 and lost 70-66, they won 83-61
Morehead State - we won 92-63 and won 78-73 in OT, they won 71-53

Massey says we're pretty evenly matched: https://masseyratings.com/game.php?s0=6 ... &oid1=8754
Lipscomb is favored, but barely. It's listed as exactly a 50/50 toss-up with the most likely score being 73-72 for them.

Glad to see they are dropping the price on tickets, I hope they get a decent size crowd to support them.

The pep band will be there too. There was a lot of excitement on our group chat today because of it.
 

Yea for the Pep Band !!

The winner of the Western vs Lipscomb game will play Illinois State in the second round.

I’d love to win a game or two and go into the offseason with some momentum. I believe that this roster will compete next year for the OVC title if we can keep the core together.
